Rock Band DLC: The Beatles Abbey Road and Queen


Late last week I headed down to the MTV office in Santa Monica to check out the goodies being released for Rock Band on Tuesday, October 20.

Two exciting new song packs are being released tomorrow for The Beatles: Rock Band and Rock Band.

Hardcore Beatles fan who played through the game looking for more songs to unlock will be happy to know that the full Abbey Road album will be available to download, plus those that download the full album will have access to a 16-minute medley of b-sides as a single track. Be sure to pick an instrument and a difficult you are proficient on, as this medley can, at times, kick your butt. I managed through it on hard difficulty on the drums, which, on The Beatles: Rock Band, isn’t too bad, except I almost failed out of one of the drum solos!

Rock Band fans will have another reason to stay in on a Friday night with your friends with the new Queen DLC 10 pack, with ultimate favorites such as “Another One Bites The Dust” and “Fat Bottomed Girls”. Unfortunately, no “Bohemian Rhapsody” on this pack, but never say never. Everyone likes to think of bands and songs they’d like to see on Rock Band, and Queen was probably on most people’s lists. Why didn’t they think of this sooner? I can see it now… households all over the country will be breaking out the face paint and platforms, and smashing their guitar controllers into the ground… well, maybe not. But there will certainly be a lot of Rock Band parties in your near future!

Abbey Road Tracks:

“Come Together” - “Something” - “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” - “Oh! Darling” - “Octopus’s Garden” - “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” - “Here Comes The Sun” - “Because” - “You Never Give Me Your Money” - “Sun King” - “Mean Mr. Mustard” - “Polythene Pam” - “She Came In Through The Bathroom Window” - “Golden Slumbers” - “Carry That Weight” - “The End” - “Her Majesty”

Queen 10-Pack Tracks:

Another One Bites the Dust” – “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” – “Fat Bottomed Girls” – “I Want It All” – “I Want to Break Free” – “Killer Queen” – “One Vision” – “Somebody to Love” – “Tie Your Mother Down” – “Under Pressure”

Be sure to get up bright and early on Tuesday, October 20 to be the first of your friends to download these tasty tracks and have them mastered before they do!

PSP Review: Rock Band Unplugged


Rock Band Unplugged

As a connoisseur of music games, I’ve seen it all throughout the years. I got my start with Parappa the Rapper and Um Jammer Lammy, and now I’m pretending I actually have real guitar-playing skills via Guitar Hero and Rock Band.

Rock out with your block out


Perhaps the apocalypse is approaching, because when I first got wind of the newest addition to the Lego nerd cult of games, I thought I saw the light.  Or maybe it’s just the sweltering climate we’re having here in Los Angeles.

Rumors at GDC have now been proven true.  It is indeed coming.  And the fans are excited.

The Beatles in Rock Band and Guitar Hero


It has been a rumor for quite sometime now that possibly we might see in the future some Beatles music appearing in Rock Band and/or Guitar Hero games. This rumor seems to be picking up speed and actually getting some truth behind it. Activision and MTV Games are in talks with Apple Corps (the company created by the Beatles to oversee all of their music and videos rights) to get these rock gods into their games.
